I am looking at buying a 71 mach 1. The only thing is its an automatic, and I really want manual but I cant pass up this price. Is it possible to swap the auto for a stick? Ideally I would like to put in a T56. Is this possible. Thanks for any info, and Aloha from Hawaii

#27 of 63 2005 MUSTANG - cold air intake by fordhorror

Apr 11, 2007 (6:45 am)

I am planning to buy a K2 Motor COLD AIR INTAKE KIT.
This brand is a unheard name. But cheaper than a knn or injen.
Any one know about it?
Any feedback? experience, story would help.
 
Thanks.

It is amazing to me how willing peeps are to Modify an expensive asset like their means of transportation with some part from a fly by night or otherwise unknown company.
 
I know an cold air intake may not sound complicated but do you really think these little 2 bit companys really do any true testing on the products they sell?
 
Also, on the Shelby GT, the Factory cold air intake installed by Shelby peeps only adds about 25 hp WHEN COMBINED with a rom flash. Do you really want to flash your rom with software from some 2 bit company?

It may be possible but the real question is whether it's worth the trouble. You'd be better off going with high flow SOHC heads or just replacing the entire engine.

k thanks! i might just replace it kuz i wanted to keep it all original but the tranny isnt the original so it wouldnt matter much.. thanks though!

#33 of 63 3.8 Supercharger by stang15963

Jul 12, 2007 (11:41 pm)

I have a 1995 Mustang with the 3.8 engine. I recently discovered that the 89-95 Thunderbird SC come with a 3.8 and a supercharger. So I looked at some pictures and noticed that it is almost the same engine except for the supercharger. If i am right would i be able to do a swap for the 3.8 supercharger with little to no modifications?
